The Bloodhound Gang
-- although They Might be Giants probably runs a close second.
And there's Weird Al.

Ohmigod, yes, Weird Al.
Unless that's more "geek" than nerd, and unless you want a full band instead of a singer, I'd say Weird Al hands down.

I know of a couple of die-hard Creed fans.....
And yes, loser applies.

Not a band, but a singer... I think Elvis Costello would be up there.

Anyway, I think the anime crowd wins -- HANDS DOWN!

Co-Sign....
And also the soundtracks to video games...

You people obviously never roomed with a total nerd in college.
Nerds like Rush. The worst band ever!

Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd has a rather large nerd base. I attended a concert in Tampa, about 15 years ago, where everyone remained seated.

Pink Floyd's shows are more theatrical. I couldn't imagine standing and doing whatever at a concert like that.

Rush is geek, not nerd. And yes, I agree that they are awful. I was dragged to a concert once, it was traumatic.

Barry Manilow probably has a big nerd fanbase. I think that nerds are more attracted to solo artists than bands.
